SOUTH STRABANE, Pa., May 5 (UPI) -- A Pennsylvania man said he recently found a live turtle his son carved his initials into 47 years ago.
Holland Cokeley, 85, was walking in the woods behind his South Strabane home with his neighbor's dog when the dog found the turtle, KDKA-TV, Pittsburgh, reported Friday.
"I picked it up, and I thought, 'Oh geez, this is Jeff's turtle!'" said Cokeley. "It's been here for 47 years, and it still has the same markings on it!"

You were called on it. And proved to be wrong...but you STILL deny it.
Fair enough...but here in Oklahoma...we call your type...jack-asses. I think you've earned it.
You can't have it both ways.....
You are probably smarter than me...........
And YOU want a reason for being called "stupid"???
“I figure....you won’t answer me...considering you called Bull Shit on someone here...when in fact you were wrong.”

And that person was adult enough to respond “No problem”.
Have your ‘handlers’ re-read my post to you. Hopefully, they will point out where I make note that in different geographical areas there are different names for the same thing. Therefore, no one is “wrong”.
Here’s a few examples:
Out west (the REAL west) a pair of blue jeans are called “Levi’s” while in the NE they are called “Dungarees”.
What we always referred to as a “sack” are called “bags” up here in the NE.
Same thing for Freeways vs. Thruways.
It’s really not that hard to understand, IF you actually think about it.
Won’t answer you? I haven’t seen a question, yet. All I’ve witnessed so far are what most people would interpret as the rantings of a menopausal woman who thrives on sticking her nose into other people’s business.
After seeing the picture of the turtles that DainBramage posted, I’d have to say that you do indeed have a turtle population problem down there and I’d be shooting them as well.
Obviously, Osage Orange, you can’t be reasoned with, so this will be my last response to you.
One can only hope....
